Firefox addresses in navigation bar are missing/replaced by different drop-down menu

When I type in an address, the drop-down menu no longer contains the same list of addresses as always. Instead, there is a list of locations (minus the actual www.com addresses beneath each one) in bold font and some of the locations are repeated on the drop-down menu but take me to a different site. Its a guessing game where Im going when I click on one. Beside each listing, there is a magnifying glass icon which was not there before. I have been searching/reading for almost 3 hours trying to trouble shoot the issue and Ive even attempted to restore to default with no luck. This is truly annoying me.. Any suggestions?

It may happen because your some toolbars and malwares too..
Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

MS Word-missing print in file drop down menu

My Mom runs Microsoft Word on her approx 4-year old iMac using OSPanther.
Just recently, when she wants to print using the File-drop down menu to select print, the print option is not there at all. Not just suppressed. Not there at all. Command+P does not work either
No problems with, for example, Safari and Mail. Just Word.
Any ideas on how this could happen? Some sort of odd preference?

Missing countries in Contacts drop-down menu

Hey everyone,
A couple of days ago I was adding a new contact whom happen to live in Sri Lanka. However, to my surprise the Sri Lanka is not among the countries available in the drop down menu! Has anyone seen countries missing in the list?
You would think that the list would be complete, since there is no other mechanism for selecting a country for a contact. Maybe it would have been better to just leave the "country" field as a text box.

I suggest that you contact Apple and ask them to update the country list:

I lost the Firefox Icon in the upper left corner of desk top - drop down menu.

Its the orange bar with down arrow. How do I get it back ????????

As far as I know the standard option is to have either the firefox button or the menubar toolbar. Additionally if you press the keyboard Alt key then the menubar displays with the firefox button. (In windows just press the alt key,in linux hold the alt key down)
I have fixed the link in the last post,you should get something similar to this: https://support.mozilla.org/media/uploads/gallery/images/2011-10-06-03-46-34-2722c3.png when you click on the firefox button
If you want to display the menubar instead of the firefox button then use
* Firefox button -> Options -> Toolbars -> [] Menubar
* or right click an empty space on the tabs toollbar and select menubar in the dropdown

Drop Down Menu Linked to Nav Bar

It looks like the default menu bar that opens up when you click a "my page" or drop down button is layered into the nav bar. That is, if the drop down menu is bigger than the navigation area, it is "hidden" behind that layer.
I would like to bring this menu forward one step, so that it is over the navigation. I can't find where to do this at.
Also, what was the thought behind hiding it, am I missing something about a possible conflict with a browser?
Thanks!
Kirk

Hi Kirk,
Do you mean how the drop downs do not go below the banner area? If so, it is done that way because of the burn-through problem. In IE a select box (and in Netscape all form inputs) are displayed above all other layers. That means if a there is a select box in one of the portlets on a page, and the drop down drops down over it, the select box will appear on top of the drop down. This will obscure the links in the drop down.
If you don't mind the burn through problem, then there is a variable in navhztlddmenufuncs.js that you can change the value of. Look for the following code in that file.
/* ** CONFIGURABLE SETTINGS ** Flag for only displaying dropdown menus over the header and community section area. This is done to avoid a browser intrinsic issue where certain form elements are drawn ontop of any divs/layers. Set to true by default, Netscape 7.x is the only browser that doesn't exhibit this problem, set this flag to false if Netscape 7.x is the only browser used. Optionally, this flag could be set based on the browser type. gMenuMAXRowsLimit only applies when gMenuUseBannerEndTags is false.*/var gMenuUseBannerEndTags = true;var gMenuMAXRowsLimit = 8;

My back button, print, and address bar are missing how do I get them back?

''duplicate - locking - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/865223''
tool bar went missing for unknown reason, no back button, no print button no address bar or bookmarks.

''My back button, print, and address bar are missing''
Use "Alt" to make sure the menu bar is visible, then View > Toolbars > ... -- make sure that the Navigation bar is checkmarked, if tabs on top is confusing uncheck that, if you want to see menus and title bar make sure menu bar is check-marked.
If things don't stay put on the toolbars then
see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
You can make '''Firefox 6.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 6.0, look like 3.6)].

There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

Play and pause button and control bar are missing below xfinity player

when I want to watch a video noticed play and pause button and control bar are missing below xfinity player.

For the two soundchannel sounds you have, you will need to keep track if and which one is playing so that you can use some logic to stop the sound right after you mark where the sound was (position) so that you can resume playing it again when the play button is selected.
So if the stroke sound is started, you could assign a boolean variable named something like 'strokeplaying' to be true (setting the other sounds similar boolean false). Then, in your pause function you would test to see if strokeplaying is true and if it is, store the position property and stop the channel playing.
When play is selected, similarly, you test if that sound is true and if so you restart it using the position value you stored as the starting point. You do the same for the other sound... remembering that it is possible neither is playing when pause it clicked.

Cannot remove autocomplete entry from address bar; have already cleared history, and entry is not in the drop-down menu of the address bar either.

I am having problems removing an autocomplete entry from my address bar; I have tried clearing my history, so it's no longer in that, and I do not have it bookmarked either, so it's not getting the URL from that location either. The autocomplete entry isn't even showing up in the drop down menu, so I can't even scroll through that to delete it.
Basically, I want to be able to type "st" and go to "store.steampowered.com"; however, despite numerous times of typing in "st" and then going down into the drop-down menu to choose "store.steampowered.com", the bar continues to autocomplete "steamtrades.com", which is exceptionally annoying because I do not have that website bookmarked, or in my history, yet it continues to autocomplete to that address, which I do not want it to autocomplete to, and cannot figure out how to remove because I've already cleared my history multiple times, do not have it bookmarked, and it is not showing up in the drop down of the address bar for me to go down and force delete it.

Did you try to remove some letters from steamtrades.com to see if that bring this entry up in the drop-down list?
If it is not in the history then it might be present with a typed=1 flag indicating that you have typed or pasted it in the location bar.
You can use the SQLite Manager extension in Firefox to inspect the places.sqlite file to see if this entry comes up in the moz_places table.
*SQLite Manager: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager/

Every single website, or link within a website page is being added to my location bar/address bar drop down menu. How can I stop this? This just started happening.

Every single website url address, or url address within a website page is being added to my location bar/address bar drop down menu.
I don't want everything added or saved in the location bar. Only urls that I used a lot used to be saved there but now every single url (and url within a url)I visit is being added to it.
How can I stop this? This just started happening.
I'm sure it's a simple browser setting but I've checked and nothing gives an option to control this.
Firefox 3.0.17
Windows XP
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.17) Gecko/2009122116 Firefox/3.0.17

A possibility is to open the links via the right-click context menu or a middle-click in a new tab to make sure that Firefox sees them as regular links.

Cannot edit my navigation bar / drop down menu

Somebody pls help me! I am new to Dreamweaver, but have been
studying it heavily the pst 3 weeks (using Sams Teach Yourself
book).
I have inherited a site and switched their navigation bar
from the current one to a different (drop down) that was stored in
the library folder. I have TRIED AND TRIED to edit these links ,
add drdop down items, delete some, etc but cannot seem to access
the 'show pop up menu' option...it is GRAYED OUT.
When I open the library file...only a navigation bar is in
it. I select one of teh nav buttons, and I am SUPPOSE to see the +
sign in the behavior panel in bold, but it stays grayed out no
matter what I do. I have tried double clicking the text (on
MouseOver), as an MX user suggested, but no menu of options pops up
here at all (although it did for her). Furthermore, I even tried
right clicking on the behavior panel where the "on Mouse Over"
identifies the action as "ShowPop Up Menu" (vs. hide pop up menu)
and I DO get a pop up menu with "EDIT BEHAVIOR" as an option. I
click on this, and nothing happens.
UGH! WHY CAN'T I EDIT THIS???
Thanks so much for your help!

I think your friend is confused. You have never been able to
edit the DW/FW
pop-up menus in a template controlled page in any version of
DW. This is
but one of the many reasons one would never want to use these
menus. There
are so many better ways to do them, and Alan has given you
some links....

Top Navigation Bar drop down menu's do not work

Top Navigation Bar drop down menu's do not work. It is only happening on a couple of my site collections and is affecting on the main page of those collections. There is only one web part on the main page, it is the Picture Library Slideshow web part. When
I remove that web part, the menu's come back and work with no problem. I re-add the web part and the menu's stop working. Not finding any error's in the server logs, there are no visual error's thrown. Any advice on what might be happening? I've checked
the Java update on our computers and it has the latest version. Open to any advice at this point.

Hi,
How does the Top Navigation Bar dropdown menu issue look like?
Could you please provide a screenshot about the issue, also may detecte the problematic elements by using IE browser developer tool (keyboard F12)?
Please also check if it is related IE compatibility issue.
Thanks
